UNC Football: How Dalvin Cook’s decision could impact Michael Carter

The former UNC football standout could end up being the odd man out if his current team elects to sign this star free-agent running back.

With NFL training camps underway, there are still a few quality running backs that are still available on the free-agent market.

One of them is star Dalvin Cook, one of the league’s best running backs since he was drafted in 2017. The New York Jets have been heavily linked to Cook, as the former Minnesota Viking spent the weekend visiting the team in Florham Park, New Jersey.

As the Jets explore every possible option to improve their roster, Cook seems to make a lot of sense for them, especially given that starter Breece Hall is still rehabbing from a season-ending injury from a year ago.
